Feeling Happy
Hearing steve allen on LBC
Early to rise
Monday April 2nd.
I am up early again! I seem to have stuck on waking at 5am and once awake I cannot get back to sleep and so I get up and start my day. Hence I need a snooze in the afternoons and go to bed early.You cannot keep going on just a few hours of sleep each night. I went to bed at 10 as there was nothing decent on TV. I have seen Persuasion before, I cannot stand Paul Daniels and I could not find anything worth watching. So I watched The Quiet American with Michael Caine. It is adapted from the Graham Greene novel and a fantastic story set in guess where ....Vietnam! Very topical. It was at the time of the vietnam war and so there was not much footage showing Saigon's beauty as it was war time and Saigon gets blown up. The girl in the film who was Vietnamese was absolutely beautiful. I enjoyed this film and give it 9/10 because of Michael Caine's superb acting. Then I watched Shopgirl, Steve Martin's film. It was not that good and I gave that 5/10 So I can send2 films back today and get some more.
I had a very quiet day yesterday. I did manage to get to St. James church for 10.30am. Thr vicar is very good and the service was not too old fashioned but just right. People were very friendly, the congregation being mostly my age or older. That is inevitable in the area I live where people come to retire! I will go again anyway.
After that I went into town and had a coffee and a bacon butty. I made a quick trip to WHSmith for some workbooks for the 6 and 7 year olds who are coming on Wednesday for their lessons. I got home late afternoon and watched the film. Then I spent ages downloading 75 pictures for you and labelling them. Do have a look at my last entry if you have not seen them.
Tummy is rumbling now......I need food....crumpets with marmite and banana! Wonderful!
